Pluspunten

- Remote work friendly - Some truly great people

Minpunten

On the positive side, the company aims high and has ambitious goals. However, this ambition often translates into unrealistically high expectations for employees, resulting in a pressure-cooker environment and a significant turnover rate. Micromanagement, excessive control, autocratic top-down decisions, unrealistic expectations demand overtime without compensation, contributing to burnout. The product development process is surprisingly sloppy for a company aspiring to attract enterprise clients. There seems to be a lack of attention to detail, which could hinder the company's growth in the long run. While the company boasts a feedback-friendly culture, it's a facade. Constructive feedback is ignored, and employees are often gaslit. The turnover rate is alarming, yet the management avoids any introspection and instead is choosing to deflect blame onto departing employees—labeling them as unproductive, incompatible, or due to shifting priorities. This, however, overlooks the detrimental impact of the "Great Culture", characterized by unrealistic expectations and a culture that induces burnout. The touted "Great Culture" is, in reality, one of the most toxic I've experienced.
